Chapter 488: Young Stranger (14)
"Moli, let's go, haha, go home, it's already night."
"Go back so early?"
"Or else?"
"I heard that there is a lantern festival tonight, do you want to wait and see the lantern festival before going back." Mo Li proposed, in fact, it was an excuse for him not to go back, and after he went back, there would be only the two of them left, and he didn't like to be noisy with her all the time, because it was easy to break down emotionally.
"Then let's go see the Lantern Festival."
It turns out that these people are busy for the night lantern festival, no wonder so many people are busy.
The lantern festival is contracted by the royal family, and these lights are also funded by the royal family, anyway, this large-scale event is to be lively, and the customs of the dark country are incomprehensible, obviously unexpected, but many but make people feel reasonable.
For example, that Yuelao Festival, which was obviously a festival of swagger and deception, turned out to be in a uproar, everyone knew it, and it also went to other countries, and people from other countries came from thousands of miles to participate in this event.
"Let's take a look, I want to put a river lantern too." Lingzhi suddenly became interested, looking at those little girls holding colorful river lanterns in their hands, she was rarely envious in her heart, and she also wanted to put river lanterns.
"Do you like river lanterns?" Mo Li asked Lingzhi tentatively, if she liked it, he wanted to remember, and confess it bit by bit in his future life.
"I like it, I like this very much, because at night, it is very beautiful to light the river lantern on the surface of the lake, it seems to be the light in the darkness."
"Okay." There was an idea that germinated in Moli's mind, and the idea was simple and romantic.
He wanted to confess to this girl who took him out of the dark shadows in a few years, wanted to confess with the river lamp, confessed to her with what she liked, and remembered himself even if she rejected a piece of his heart.
Because the river lantern is something she likes, he wants her to remember her name when she sees the river lantern in the future, and she will remember her own name.
"What's good, huh."
Lingzhi couldn't figure out what this stinky boy was smirking at, whether he was laughing at himself for being too naïve, naïve enough to like this kind of thing that only children like.
"Why are you angry?"
Mo Li couldn't figure out the situation and said, why did she get angry inexplicably, he didn't seem to have done anything wrong, what was she angry about?
"Why can't I be angry?"
As soon as he heard Mo Li's words, Lingzhi's temper became bigger, I don't know if it was because the two of them were familiar with each other, so Lingzhi also began to get used to losing his temper to Mo Li.
"If you want to laugh, laugh at it, it's true that I like river lanterns, it's really naïve for people like me to like river lanterns, my liking is self-inflicted humiliation."
Lingzhi shook off Mo Li's hand and went to the stall next to her alone, she ran to buy river lanterns, she especially liked river lanterns, because river lanterns are things with hope and warmth, and they were dreams when she was a child.
"Don't go, I didn't mean that......"
"I didn't laugh at you...... I can't help but be happy just to see you...... When I see you laughing, I want to laugh along......"
Mo Li's heart panicked, and he was very uncomfortable.
"Don't go, I didn't laugh at you...... I really didn't have ......."
Mo Li hurriedly went to chase Lingzhi, he was afraid that this girl would disappear into the sea of people, afraid that he would not find her, and afraid that she would not come by herself.
There are more and more people around, probably because night has arrived and the lantern festival is about to start.
Mo Li hurriedly went to find the girl, it is easy to get lost when there are many people, and she is a road idiot, a veritable road idiot.
The last time this girl went home, she was led back by someone else, she didn't know the way, and she couldn't find the way home with a map, she was a fool.
In front of the stall.
A little girl in black looked at the lantern on the stall, the lotus-like lantern, this lantern is very beautiful, the petals seem to be real, this person who paints the lantern is very powerful, as powerful as the teacher of Moli, vivid.
"Little girl."
"Grandma, what's wrong."
"I see you've been here for a long time, don't you like this lantern, if you like it, do you want to buy it back, it just so happens that tonight is the Lantern Festival, the little girl can put a beautiful lantern and make a wish." Grandma's business is very good, and when she is almost busy, she came to Lingzhi and took the lantern that Lingzhi had been looking at and said, "This lantern is very good, I sold several of them tonight, and the little girl's family likes it." ”
"It's beautiful."
Lingzhi couldn't help but marvel at the lantern in front of him, this lantern was very popular in the future, and there must be this kind of lantern in every lantern festival.
"Do you like it?"
"Like, like." Lingzhi looked at the lantern and had an idea in his heart, didn't he still have a strange departure? Mo Li is a man, and he looks about the same age as himself, so he can buy lanterns.
"Do you want to buy it back?"
"Are you alone? If it is a person, the mother-in-law cannot sell it to you, the mother-in-law can only sell it to others, and there is only one person left with such lanterns. ”
"Grandma, I'm waiting for someone, waiting for that stupid guy to come and buy it for me, I don't like to buy a gift for myself, it's not interesting to buy a gift for myself, and my heart is still empty, I don't like this feeling."
"Well, when is that lad coming?"
The mother-in-law is a little anxious, she wants to sell it as soon as possible and then go home to cook, today is a busy day, and she has to cook for her grandson when she goes back.
The money from selling lanterns is just enough to buy some meat for the grandson to improve the diet, it is not good to eat vegetables every day, and the little grandson is the time to grow his body, so he should make up the broth.
"How does the mother-in-law know that it's a young man and not a little girl?" Lingzhi asked the mother-in-law rhetorically.
"Guess."
"Mother-in-law guessed right."
"Of course it's a young man, the Lantern Festival is a time to get married, and the people who come to me to buy lanterns are all little girls, and there are young men, either young men, or two or three little girls come together."
"If it's a single person, there must be one more person waiting for the meeting."
"Little girl, like this lantern? This is the most popular lantern, and it was recently invented, you can also put your own wishes in it, you can put a note in the inside of the lantern, fold it into a small star and put it in the center of this place, when the lantern is burned, your wish is taken away by the fire and brought to the gods. ”
The mother-in-law was afraid that the lingzhi would not be sold, so she tried her best to sell it, because there would only be this one lantern left, many people had lanterns in their hands, and other stalls were also opened more and more.
"Mother-in-law, that person is here, I went to pull him over, he was dumbfounded, and he couldn't find me."
Lingzhi is very disgusted that Mo Li can't find his appearance, stupid, why didn't he see it here, isn't this stall obvious?
"Go ahead, be careful that the lad is lost." Grandma said very intimately, "This lantern mother-in-law keeps it for you, remember to come back." ”
"Thank you, mother-in-law."
"Mother-in-law, I'm going now, can you keep this lantern for me, I'll be back soon."
"Okay, stay, stay first, go early and come back early."
She had to buy that lantern, this lantern had to be her own, and she didn't want to get even a lantern for so long.
Lingzhi hurriedly ran to Renhai Lamo to leave, this stupid guy didn't find himself, he was dumbfounded, what should he do if he lost it in the future?
"Moli!"
Lingzhi suddenly emerged from behind Mo Li, and then tightly pulled Mo Li's arm and dragged Mo Li out of the sea of people.
"What ......" Mo Li was taken aback, hurriedly turned around, and saw a girl full of anxious girls.
"Shadow...... It's you ......."
"Waste, it's not who I am...... Lingzhi said disapprerovingly, "Besides me, who else knows you, who will pull you away, really, such a big person can't find me in such an obvious place." ”
"I didn't mean to, I just ......" I just like you, I like the way you smile, and when I see you laughing, I want to laugh along.
"I'm standing in the most conspicuous booth behind you, why can't you just turn around and look at me, and when you turn around, you can see that I'm standing there looking at your back."
I'm standing behind you, I'm standing behind you, looking at you, looking at you, but why can't you just turn around and look at me, even if you look at me, you can turn around and see me, I'm the most visible place behind you.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know, I didn't find you behind my back."
Mo Li said apologetically, he really didn't mean to, he didn't expect Lingzhi to stand behind him and wait for him to turn back.
"Okay, okay, it's over, don't blame yourself, I don't like to see you like this the most, your appearance makes me embarrassed, as if I was the one who made the mistake."
"This is for you, buy me lanterns."
"Why?"
"Why are you so many why, do you think you are a hundred thousand why?"
"Okay." Mo Li lowered his head and blushed, and he felt the crispiness on the side of his arm.
Lingzhi looked at Mo Li with disgust on her face, grabbed Mo Li's clothes and pulled Mo Li in front of Grandma's stall. "Let's go."
"Grandma, I brought it, haha, I brought the person who bought the lantern." Lingzhi pointed at Mo Li and said, "It's this lantern, you can buy it for me." ”
"Okay." Mo Li couldn't figure out why this girl wanted to humiliate herself and use her own money to buy gifts for herself.
"The young man is good-looking, talented and beautiful."
Grandma laughed.
"The lantern is for you."
"Thank you." Mo Li still doesn't know, why does this girl let herself use her money to buy gifts, can't she buy them herself?
Leaving the stall, Lingzhi snatched the lantern, and then looked at Mo Li with a helpless expression.
"Fortunately, it wasn't found just now, I heard that this lantern is only sold to couples or girlfriends, I don't have girlfriends and no couples, but I like this lantern very much, so, I'm sorry for you, pretend to be my partner."
"It turned out to be an impersonation."
"Well, otherwise, how would I get such a beautiful lantern, I especially like this kind of lantern, you see, isn't it very beautiful, the petals of the fans, there are notes in it, and you can also put your own wishes."
"Oh." Mo Li looked at the lantern and sighed sullenly, "What are you doing here, just because it looks good." ”
"That's right, it's because it's good-looking, it's because I like it, because I like this lantern, that's why I let you pretend to be my partner, I'm just a scheming girl."
"Haha, don't be depressed." Lingzhi was very happy to get the lantern, she took the lantern and looked around, this design is still very creative, it can be done that there are flowers in the flower, this lantern is composed of two lotus flowers, a big one, a small one.
"I didn't." Mo Li shook his head and denied it, he didn't feel depressed, he was just a little uncomfortable, he knew that he wouldn't have wasted such a good opportunity.
He was just sad that he didn't cherish that fake time just now, if he had known that she was like this, he took the initiative to take her little hand and walked away just now, what a good opportunity, it was so wasted.
"Okay, good, no, no, no, no." Lingzhi turned on the lantern, and then took out the paper and a small pen inside, "In order to compensate you, this will be given to you, and the things that write your wish will be given to you, and I will help you put the lantern." ”
"Really?" Mo Li raised her head and looked at the Lingzhi in front of her in disbelief, didn't she like the lanterns very much? Why did you give this opportunity to yourself, "really gave it to me." ”
"Nonsense, everything was handed to you, can it be fake? Don't give me a grind, hurry up and write, I'm going to put out the lanterns after writing, and I'll put Kong Ming lanterns later, I especially like this kind of festival. ”
"Hurry up, don't grind." Lingzhi muttered dissatisfied, and found that the shops around were all hung with red lanterns, and all kinds of river lanterns appeared on the lake, colorful.
"Hmm." Mo Li was not in a hurry, he started unhurriedly, as if the things in his hands were precious.
Mo Li held a pen as big as his thumb and wrote, his writing was small and slow.
Lingzhi was standing, because the paper was small and the words were small, so he didn't see what Mo Li wrote.
"It's written, I'll put it in the little lotus." Mo Li stood up and gave the little lotus to Lingzhi and put it in the big lotus.
"Got it, let's go put the river lanterns, I just bought flint and flint."
"Go over there, go under that bridge, there are fewer people over there, we can go over there and put it." Lingzhi ran over with his hands dancing, and Mo Li behind followed Lingzhi closely and didn't leave for half a step, for fear of getting lost.
Under the bridge, there are very few people.
Lingzhi lit the river lamp, and then put her hands together, she sincerely made a wish, she hoped that her friends could be safe, that her senior brother could change back, that she could get out of the sea of suffering as soon as possible, and that she could complete the task as soon as possible.
Mo Li also learned Lingzhi and made a wish, he hoped that the girl next to him could always be there, he hoped that he could be strong enough to protect her from being restrained, he hoped that he could be with her, the kind of being together day after day, year after year.
